hi, well we made it from southern FL to Northwest SC in about 11.5 hrs in the (new to me) '91 9000 T w/ 82K miles. It actually did pretty well on the road at cruising speed. That back seat is SO comfortable!! But it is finally sinking in that buying a car sight unseen (ebay) is pretty crazy (unless your a complete fool for a SAAB - like me.) The only real issues that turned up are a creaking in the front end while turning, a bit of slipping between 3rd and 4th gear (auto trans) and a strange squeaking which happens around 3500 RMPs. Discovered that it does it while reving the engine standing still as well as on the road. I'm having my indie go through it tomorrow, so will see what turns up. Sounds kinda like a bearing going somewhere (?) I got the seller to knock a good chunk off the asking to offset the cost of reparis, so overall I'm pretty happy...thus far.
